"A war within the President's term' or 'war breaking out tonight' are not just slogans, they are becoming a practical reality,” the commentary read, reports the South China Morning Post.

Chinese newspaper The Global Times, the mouthpiece of the Communist Party, also talked up war with the US.

"If the new US administration follows this route and adopts this attitude, then it will lead to a war between China and the US and that would mean the end of US history or even all of humanity,” Jin Canrong, associate dean from the University of China, told the paper.

He said: "Although the US is planning to send three aircraft- carriers to the West Pacific region, if they invade the South China Sea, we have the ability to destroy them all even if they send 10, let alone three."
